Raise your hand if you wore acid wash jeans, stone wash, and sand wash jeans in the late 1980s? My hand is way up! These jeans evoke that late 1980s vibe, and I am here for it!

OK, I will be honest, I cannot tell if these jeans are acid wash or stone wash, or some other wash that is new. They look like either acid wash or stone wash. The description does not specify the wash. Of course, back in the day, it was very important for customers to know what type of wash they were buying, since it was an important part of denim fashion! Remember that?

In addition to 1980s denim washes, the silhouettes from that time period are hot again this season too. Look for classic cuts, and higher waists. Of course, 1970s styles are hot right now too such as wide leg and flare. I plan to rock both this season!

To make a full, 1980s vibe I paired my jeans with high top sneakers and a crop top. This is a very late 1980s look! If you plan to rock a crop top this season, remember to pair it with higher waisted jeans. Crop tops do not go with low rise jeans.

This was a fun outfit to wear the other day when we ate out in Japantown San Jose at Okayama Sushi. These sneakers were nice and comfy for walking around, and high tops, which were hot in the 1980s, are hot again now!

For a full 1980s vibe, I wore my green handbag for a fun pop of color. It is so much fun wearing fall outfits now!
